The BRS guidelines are the first step towards biologic treatment for nasal polyps in the UK. Nearly there! Well done BRS team.
#TREATSINUSDISEASEBETTER
The British Rhinology Society have just published consensus guidelines on nasal polyps-well done BRS!
British Rhinological Society Consensus Guidance on the use of biological therapies for Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps.

To help people with hay fever to understand treatment approaches available to combat this troublesome condition, I have created a new website. I will successively add information to this, so please keep your eye out.......STOPHAYFEVER#

Hay fever season is really active now and I can see so many people sneezing away and rubbing their eyes. Tree allergy, particularly with birch tree season, is active. Sadly for most, things will get worse when grass season arrives in May. STOPHAYFEVER#

Clever stuff! Well done. #TREATSINUSDISEASE
Congratulations to Hamish King, Nara Orban and the team of Louisa James at Barts. Using cutting edge single cell RNA technology they reconstructed the entire germinal centre response, which show us exactly how different B cells evolve. B cells drive sinusitis!#TREATSINUSDISEASE
Well done Mr Tom Jacques. So glad to see other colleagues taking note of how important hayfever is! The first step always is to get the correct diagnosis as knowing what you are allergic too allows more precise intervention or treatment. #STOPHAYFEVER

For a simple and practical explanation on nasal mucus....
#STOPHAYFEVER
Mucus is the word. I was asked by the New Scientist to explain if one should blow or sniff excess mucus. I said one can do both, depending on the cause of such mucus.

I have just published my interpretation of how the drug dupilumab (Dupixent), that blocks the key immune cytokines IL-4/IL-13, works in nasal polyps. We are now one step closer to treating nasal polyps in the NHS #nasalpolyps #biolgics #TREATSINUSDISEASEBTTER!
